This magnificent home effortlessly incorporates modern design within this substantial stone-built residence. With off-road parking, beautiful mature gardens, a sleek living room extension and sauna within the main bedroom en-suite, this is a home brimming with attractive features. There are opportunities to gather with friends and family in the large kitchen, which flows through to the snug and has an adjacent more formal dining room. The three storey home has four double bedrooms, two bathrooms, plus a separate WC and standalone bath in one of the bedrooms.

There is also the option to purchase the successful holiday let property with annexe, garden and parking next door for an additional £150,000. This is a significant opportunity for additional income, in this area of high demand for holiday let accommodation.

On the ground floor is a large breakfast kitchen, snug, dining room, living room and utility room. To the first floor are two double bedrooms, the family bathroom and a large library/music room. On the second floor are two further double bedrooms - one with the standalone bath and one with en-suite shower room and sauna - and a separate WC. The extensive gardens include large patio dining areas, neat lawns, mature planted borders, a pond and secret garden. There are outdoor store areas too - one of which could be converted into a garden office.

Middleton-by-Wirksworth is a small hilltop village with a primary school, village hall and a multitude of walks and cycling routes leading from the village. Two differing pubs offer real ale and cooked meals. Wirksworth has just been named by The Sunday Times as the best place to live in Derbyshire. It is just down the hill and has a range of thriving independent shops and restaurants, a health centre, schools and weekly and monthly markets. The Peak District, Carsington Water and the High Peak Trail are all on your doorstep.

Front Of The Home - The gravel parking area has space for two vehicles to park. Step through the timber gate, with the gardens stretching out in front of you and to the left - and the impressive three-storey stone built home is on your right. We'll enter the home into the kitchen through the wooden front door with brass handle.

Kitchen - 4.2 x 4 (13'9" x 13'1") - The dual aspect kitchen has flagstone flooring and a high beamed ceiling. The centrepiece is the huge island with granite worktop and integral four-ring Neff electric hob.

On the left-hand wall beyond the stairs is a range of fitted appliances including a Baumatic coffee machine, combi-oven and Neff double oven, with space for a large American-style fridge-freezer.

On the far wall beneath the south facing window is a large ceramic Butler's sink with heritage chrome mixer tap, set within the granite worktop. The deep window sill demonstrates the thickness of the walls in this substantial home. There are more cabinets below including an integral dishwasher and cute shelved alcove to the right. The room also includes a radiator, north facing window with window seat to the front garden and a pine door to the snug. The open fireplace with working chimney also looks through to the snug and there is a large under-stairs storage area and door to the utility room.

The room includes an antique WC and cistern, 'Savoy'-branded ceramic sink with chrome taps and ceiling light fitting. There are windows at each end, a pine-effect laminate floor, loft hatch, wood-panelled walls and lots of space for furniture and seating.

Gardens - The extensive gardens include several seating and dining areas in sun and shade, whilst the mature plants have been lovingly tended over a long period of time. To the left is a wooden outdoor bar and seating area. From the entrance gate, a gravel path leads to the front door and beyond, to the large dining patio and barbecue area, which looks down over the lawn and well-stocked garden, with a wide range of colourful plants and trees including hydrangea and weigela.

From here, a stone path leads down to the pond and a very large stone shed and log store. Around the corner is another patio, lawn and the 'Secret Garden' - a pleasant sheltered and private space at the rear of the home. There are wall-mounted exterior lights, illuminating the dining and seating areas, making them the perfect locations for evening meals and drinks in this private, secluded space.
